NEW RIVALRY OF THE PRESS.
It is Great Benefit to Very Large
Number of Writers.

NUMBER OF WRITER'S.
NEW YORK, Oct. Isl recently spoke Of
the unprecedented competition between the
morning dailies of this city. 1t has now
taken the shape of rivalry in the issue of
evening editions. Years ago Mr. Bennett
issued the Telegram as an afternoon off
shoot of the Herald and it reached large
circulation. This year the Herutd'S con-
temporaries have taken the hint to do like
wise The first of them to do so was the
Sup, which sent out the first copy of its
evening edition last March, at half the price
of the Telegram, which is &c. The Euening
Sun sprang into popularity at once, and its
presses have been running off not far from
100000 copies daily, price 1c. This success,
which went beyond anything ever known
in an evening paper of New York, stimu-
lated the enterprise of Mr.. Dorsheimer, of
the Star, who few weeks ago whirled out
his afternoon edition and gave the newsboys
another cry. 1t was not to be supposed that
Pulitzer, of the World, would stand still
when such race was in progress, and on
Oct. 10 the evening edition of
the World appeared on the streets in the
hands of hundreds of hoarse-voiced little
vendors, price 1c. The competition between
these four evening editions and the rival
morning papers is tremendous, and their
with which New Workers. have long been
familiar, is not less So The flying messen-
gers pursue the crowded streets with their
bundles of papers, and haunt every locality
where people are to be found up to s or
o'clock at night Tens of thousands of
people now buy evening papers who never
before bought them, and go to bed full to
the brim with all the news of the city and
the world. There are no facts at hand about
the extent to which they have injured the
older high-priced afternoon papers, but the
probability is that the injury has been less
than might be supposed, and that they
have, in large part, raised new classes of
readers for themselves.
The other morning papers are now talk
ing of entering the evening field, and join
ing the rivalry that grows by what it feeds
on" The chief owner of the Times has
been in brown study on the subject, as
well as the owner of the Journal and it is
probable that the owner of the Tribune has
felt the influence that is filing all the other
editorial rooms of the city. The Likelihood
is that we shall soon have a swarm of even
ing sheets, such as is to be found IN no other
great city of the world. In fact, we have
that already.
The newspaper rivalry which has sudden
ly made its appearance, has proved highly
advantageous to several classes of toilefS.
1t has been a godsend to at least 100 repor-
ters and writers: also to twice as many
typesetters and preSSmen; also to thrice as
many newSboys; also to the telegraph com
panies, and, perhaps, also to the capitalists
who have thus invested their money, but
whose fierce rivalry is not free from ele-
rients of danger. JOHN SwINToN.

One of the most plaintive and hopeless
struggles | have ever seen occurred at the
big Anti-Poverty Fair the other night at
Madison Square Garden. The huge struc-
ture was flied by a Surging and teeming
mass of Irish-American enthusiasts talking
about labor movements, DIR. McGlynn So
Glynn and DIR. McGlynn ever and ever
afterward. The snug face of the ex-priest
and keen political worker looked out of
every picture frame, and all sorts of things
from washtllhs TO roses, bore the mystic
name of McGlynn.

A WONDERFUL INVENTION.
A Machine Which the Telephone Will
Find No Contemplate Rival.

rIuQ NO contemplate Rival.
From the Baltimore San.
WASHINGTON, Oct 13-There is consid-
cradle talk in the Patent Office Just now con-
corning an invention patented recently,
which, in the opinion of some, will be a
formidable rival of the telephone Mr.. Bells
monopoly. The invention is an electric
typewriter. The instrument in appearance
somewhat resembles an ordinary mechanical
typewriter. 1t has q keyboard, and the
types are placed on steel bars, which play
upon common centre, as is the case with
the typewriter. The motive power used
is electricity, by means of which
evenness of action is assured. No mat
ter how heavily or how lightly the
keys are struck, the impression on the pa
per is the same. A remarkable feature of
the invention used as a typewriter is that
tire carriage moves automatically both for
ward and backward. When the end of the
line is reached the carriage returns to the
starting point without the aid of the opera
tor, and the paper bar moves one notch, so
that all that is required of the operator is to
depreSs the keys. The most important field
for the new invention is said to be in con-
nection with the telegraph. 1t is said at
the patent Office that the instrument can be
used both as IA transmitter and receiver of
-
how great the distance may be.
The receiving instrument does not
require the attendance of an opera
tor, but prints the dispatch automatically.
The instruments at both ends of the line
print the dispatch sent, and SO safeguard
against mistakes is provided. 1t is claimed
that the electric typewriter will be valuable
as local aid to business, and offers many
advantages over the telephone One advan-
tage claimed for it is that no matter whether
a person called up is at his place of bust
ness or not, the message can be printed
through the medium of his Typewriter, and
will be there for perusal on his return The
dispatches printed are in letter form, aud
not an endless tape. The instrument,
which has been christened the dynamo
graph, is considered by Patent Office otli-
cials to be one of the greatest inventions
upon which patents have been issued The
electricians do not stint their praise, and
are positive that the machine win greatly
simplify business intercommunication
Some of tine electricians of this city who
have seen the instrument notably Prof
Berlinger, OF the Bell Telephone Company,
state that the dynamograph is destined 10
take its place as a powerful adjunct to teleg
raphy, and will be by no means rival that
the telephone can afford to scorn. John
Russell Young, exMinister to China, has
taken hold of the new invention, and is
President of the company which is to put it
in practical operation.

Harvesting the Hay Crop.

The great secret of successful havmak-
ing consists in curing grass fresh up to
the point at which it will do to put it
into the barn and no more, in order to
arrest the loss of sugar and starch at the
earliest possible moment. Grass quickly
cured is, other things being equal, more
nutritious than grass longer exposed to
shifting winds and scorching sunshine.
Some farmers want only one good hay
day IN which to expose grass before
housed, while Others require two and
sometimes three days. Some prefer to let
it lie on the ground, just as it is left by
the mower, others cure it in the wind
row, and still others in the cock. This
difference of practice results chiefly from
the difference in the cutting quality of
the various grasses.
Timothy cures more readily, for iu-
stance, than does herd grass, while the
coarser grasses require still longer time
than herd grass. Glover contains more
water than any other grasses, consequent
ly it is harder to cure.
a plan very generally adopted by East
ern famers is that of moving the clover
in the forenoon after the dew is off, let
ting it lie long enough to wilt, and
putting it in small cocks or the barn the
same day. 1t ought always to be borne
in mind that clover as it lies scattered by
the mower, will be greatly injured if the
dew falls upon it. Glover hay does not
shed rain, hence when stacked out in the
fields should be protected either with
patent covers or a thatching of straw.
One secret of success in curing clover
is cutting the herbage when it is in
right condition. 1t ought to be cut for
hay soon after blossoming and before the
seed is formed. Lucerne is usually
best cut as soon as it begins to flower, or
even earlier
When, for any reason, hay has not
been perfectly dried and there is danger
that it may heat in the NOW, it is ad.
vised to have alternate layers of the new
hay and straw or old hay. Glover stored
in this way with old meadow hay or straw
is greedily eaten by cattle.

Growing Tomatoes.

The chief desire is to secure an carly
and prolific crop of this desirable vegeta-
bic, and regarding the mode of securing
this end opinions differ. Plants are
started under glass and transplantcd as
soon as the temperature will admit, but
this does not always insure an carly crop;
we have planted the seed in warm soil,
and secured the fruit from this plant as
soon as from those that had been started
early and transplantcd Cutting back is
believed to have a favorable influence in
fastening the maturity of the fruit.
Some continue the practice of heading
back to the extent of clipping several
times. From the London horticultural
Times we learn that one English grower
practices an entirely different mode, by
which he secures good success, and that
is by striking off all side or lateral roots,
training the one leader, which is trained
to a trellis. No doubt the ripening of to-
matoes may be very much fastened by
training to trellis so that the sun may
strike them and the hot air circulate
freely about them. The Horticultural
Times speaks of very remarkable growth
from plants set in boxes, and which, after
few punches were set, was watercd
about twice a week with sewage water.
No doubt as rule too rich soil is dis
advantage TO tomato crops. The ten
dency is to a growth of vines at the ex-
pense of the fruit. When planted or set
in Il rather poor soil they send up few
stalks and these develop early tomatoes,
that are entirely satisfactory. .- German

Medicine Among the MOors.

Progress in the treatment of disease is
not everywhere the modern order, the
Moor, whose medical practice is a singu-
lar mixture of little real skill with an
astonishing amount of ignorant super
stition, seeming to be actually going
backward. Says a recent writer: ''The
Moorish medicine man'-we can hardly
call him dOctor-certainly displays some
skill in treating cataract. He has
also an original method of curing irrita-
tion of the eyes due TO the presence of
foreign bodies; with much skill he passes
his tongue over the open eve of the
patient, and thus, without irritating re-
moves the sand, grit, etc. For cupping,
the Moor also makes good use of his
mouth; a cows horn is placed over the
part, and from hole at the point of the
horn the operator sucks out the blood,
etc. But the Moore who ventures on
such treatment, will, with equal conf
dence, prescribe golddust, or the scrap
ings from the horn of rhinoceros, as an
emmenagogue, and will give an idle man
ants TO eat, or suggest that coward
should try and procure for his meal a
little lions flesh. - The fumes of burn
ing animal bodies are supposed to exert
a Strengthening influence. An efTectual
use IS made of cauteriZatiOn; and an eX-
cellent syrup for coughs and colds is
prepared by boiling figs, dates and raisns.
Fractures are dressed with splinters and
tow soaked in honey. Disease is at
tributed to evil spirits, and noises and a
display of weapons are expected to
frighten them away. False teeth and
other European innovations are resente
as an interference with divine will.

FARM AND GARDEN.
Care OF Young Chickens.

All young chicks are tender, and espe-
cially liable to be chilled by running
in wet grass. There is little difference
in this respect, though some kinds get
in full feather earlier than Others, after
which time they are less liable to be in
jured. There is, however, much differ
ence in the liability of different breeds
to be dragged around in the wet by their
mothers. The kinds that are good for
ayers are for that very'reason poor mothers.
They are too enterprising, getting up and
running around early in the morning for
food, while the heavier Asiatic breeds
will sit and brood their young until the
dew has dred off. The tenderness Of
young turkey chicks is mainly due to the
propensity of the turkey hen to forage
early in the morning. They need to be
kept shut up until or 10 o'clock, and
10 be fed once or twice before being let
out. When turkeys become as large as
quails they can run anywhere, and with
their own mother will thrive better than
with common hen, as she will travel
farther.

A BIR FIsh on a Small iioot.

The exploit Of the Florida fisherman
who landed tarpon, more fe-niliarly
known as the silver fish, with rod and
reel, has been excelled by young lad of
marlborough named Germain, who,
with common fishing pole, a five-cent
line, and an ordinary trout hook landed
3OO-pound tarpon at this place on the
4th. Germain was fishing for mackerel
on the canning factory wharf, when his
bait went under with jerk. It seemed
so like maokerel bite that he essayed to
land his game in mackerel style. The re-
sistance offered and the immediate ap.
pearance of the silver-coated monster.
who broke the water and threw himself
into the air only TO dive back to the
deep, showed that tarpon was hooked.
The lad held on TO the pole like grim
death and yelled. Mcssrs. Willie Hay
ward, keen sportsman, Thad Lyons,
an expert fisherman, and Jack Craig, an
other expert, being on hand, relieved the
lad at intervals, and the fish was skill
fully played until, exhausted, it lay pant
ing on its side by the pier posts. Three
thrusts oi the harpoon glanced off. The
fourth transtixed him. Its jumps mean
time had been immense. 1t threw itself
from the water and turned with that pc
culiar wrigglc which, it is said throws
the hook from the jaws, but every effort
1t made to get straight tension on the
line was met by the man at the end of
the pole, and, almost lifeless, the grand
game lay by the posts of the pier. To
get the monster on the pier was the next
question. As he lay supinely on his side
Jack Craig skinned down one of the
posts and inserted big hook in his gills.
This movement of Crsig's resulted in a
rctaliatory movement on the part of the
fish, who gave what old whalers have de-
scribed as the death furry, and Craig was
struck on the head by the end of the fishs
tail, which for moment stunned him.
Upon his recovery the parties pulled the
grand catch upon the pier. It's weight
was in the neighborhood of 800 pounds.

then it is always deemed safest never TO
plant cabbages two years in succession
on the same ground; for while such
crops as onions show but little benefit by
rotation with other crops, cabbages, per
haps more than anything else, are bene-
fitted by such alienation. When it can
be done, nothing is better than to let the
cabbage crop be alternated with grasses,
such rs German millet, timothy, or
cIpver, or crop OF oats or rye. This is
the method pursued by many of the Long
Island market gardeners, who grow for
the New York market where their lands
are cheap enough to allow them to do so /;
but the gardeners of Hudson County, n.
j., which is in sight of New York City,
whose lands now are limited in area, aud
for which an average of $50 per acre rent
is paid per annum, cannot well afford to
let their lands lay thus comparatively
idle and in consequence do'not now raise
as fine crops as the lands thus "restedn
by the grass or grain crops.
If the land for the cabbage crop is of a
kind suitable to grow a good crop of
corn or potatoes, and is titled or fer
tilted in the manner advised, it is rare

the plants are in good condition, and
have been properly planted, unless they
are attacked by the maggot or 'club
root" In our trial grounds, where over
a hundred different stocks of cabbage
are tested each year, we have found that
every kind of cabbage tested, early or
late, has produced solid heads, showing
that when the conditions are right all
kinds of cabbages will head up and pro-
duce a crop.
